my aunt kept giving us the ones that belongs to each of us especially me and my sister different gown m, skirts ,tops, shoes, belts, bags and a makeup bag so many that i couldnt count

we finish picking ours at last my aunty handed me a pink box very portable for me

'your mom said u are in need of this my aunt molara said

oh thank you aunty thank you mom i said packing my bags inside to arranged it later i draged it inside my room.

Latee that aftenrnoon my mom,aunty molara ,my sister jennifer and my cousin success and i dressed up as we were going to the market we havent shopped for christmas i guess my mom was waiting for my aunt to come because i know she wouldnt want to be left behind for the christmas shopping.

my mom drove as went to the market, we bought a lot of things in the market for christmas but ths years own was too much as if we were feeding a nation .

we got home drop the bags, change our clothes as we were going to shoprite

we dressed up again as all of us except my dad.

we enter the car, my first elder brother daniel drove to shoprite in our sinnena.

on our way all i could do was think, my family wasnt that rich or too poor just average

at my age were some of my mate were independent i wasnt i cant do or go anywhere without my parent permission it was becoming unbearable because i dont even have friends to visit or call
it was sickening it even got to a point were i see my mates and hid or i wouldnt even be able to converse with them well but there is nothing i could do.

but this time i feel as if am alive again but a part of me isnt because it knows that once christmas is over and my aunty goes back things will go back the way it is.
******
it was our first time here well apart from my aunt and her children am sure.

my brother pack the car as we all got down

well according to my aunty there are things we could get here that are not in the local market we went to.

24 december it was watch night from morning till now we havent rested a bit since my aunt is a caterer we were baking all kinds of cakes,cookies,making yourghurt,icecream,bread and so on.
i was suprised to see my elder brothers in the kitchen especially on christmas day they always run.
we were all working and eating at the same time
and it was fun i tell you every one was smiling and even if ur enemy was here an telling u, u wouldnt even notice u might even hug him/her,
i felt peace, happiness around like everything is ok but everything isnt after christmas everthing will go back the same way it is , and i wish it doesnt but i have stop wishing and hoping.

i and success walked to the kitchen, i could still remember when she enter my room the first time and saw my post miracle dont happen she looked at me without saying anything just like my family member only my aunt molara sat me down and prayed for me with encouraging words like my mom always do.
i was still in thought when success tap me as we were already in the kitchen but turn to look at the kitchen sink then i knre why she was tapping me
well yesterday being christmas everyone was ready to eat but none was ready to work
we began washing all the plates,clean the kitchen, the house entierly and did some laundrys.
